Ugh. This hand was bothering me all yesterday night and when I woke up this morning so I decided to post it. Calculating these odds confused the hell out of me spur of the moment, that's not really happened to me before. Button and MP2 are both loose players but not normally this aggressive. I initially think MP2 might be on a flush draw as well but when he caps I know he's got something more then that. After the turn I was certain someone had the straight (I was pretty sure on the flop) and so I didn't bother calling the river even though the pot was so huge and I had top pair. When do you get away from this hand? When you have to cold-call two on the flop?
